Dude, UK will host before State...NCAA wants to have Northern regional spots.


Keep telling yourself this. I wasn't posting my opinion, but what was published by one of the most respected college baseball websites.

Our former AD is on the selection committee. Ask LSU if this has mattered in regards to us in the past...

Also, if you think the NCAA prefers this:


to this:


Well, I have nothing else for you...

That said, you have the better resume at this point and deserve to host over both us and ARKY. I'm not arguing that fact. It could change in this tournament though.

In the case of a toss-up between us 3, you don't have a 33% chance. More like a 20% chance, with us/arky sharing the other 80%.

Down Doggie.

UK will add seats for the regioal (6,500-7,000) total and it was a comment from the head of the committee that stated that baseball needed more Northern sites for host for travel accommodations of teams and more exposure(Templeton). Also Leg Humper, UK has hosted a regional back in 2006 with success having over 6,000 in attendance for sessions...so, it can and will be done again.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but the folks for UKAA have been planning for a regional host for a couple of weeks.

You will see a Gary, IN and Lexington host site.
